Trying to find a good looking wood to make Todd a call, mesquite burl looked good till I tried turning, it was like a politician- good outside and rotten inside. Nice spalted maple but suspicious knot on it too, and nice birdseye I might keep for myself.
Todd if the wavy maple looks ok let me know, I don't want to waste last delrin mouth piece, componits inl last picture.

That is a pretty call right there.
If you need some delrin, let me know. I have plenty aound here and can get as much as I need. I am sure there are one or two cut off pieces I could zip out to you for free if you want them.

Al, kind words on call. I went to your web site and was really impressed. Your providing a big service to call makers- hope they are responding. What size is the cocobolo blanks ? Do you take paypal ? and what would be total for the 24 ??
I'll accept offer of scrap delrin IF I buy the cocobolo, I've been making the little 2 pc calls with 5/8" mouth pieces.

All the blanks are 1 1/2 by 12 give or take a bit on the 1 1/2 inch square. They may vary 1/8" or so, the game call blanks are all 4 inches long, same 1 1/2 square.
Shipping is via Priority mail. I can get 12 to 14 blanks in a box for 8.95. 1 blank is 5 and two is 7 and 3 or more 8.95 for shipping.
Yup. PayPal loves me. They get a cut of everything. Worse than my wife.
I wont have 5/8" delrin util next week. I buy it in 10 foot lengths 100 feet at a time. It never fails that they send me 6 or 7 that are 9 foot 11 inches so I usually have short sticks around. Those I usually put in someones box as extras when they order. But I can save you out a few. Just drop me an e mail if you need something and I can work it out for you. thogamecalls@aol.com
